So intense and spicy with nutmeg, cloves, ink and blackberries. Also asphalt, lead pencil and tobacco. Full-bodied, but at the same time, there’s a real balance giving incredible depth and length. The tannins are all there but are polished as well as firm. Superb structure. A neoclassical Cos, one for long-term aging. Perhaps the best ever. A blend of 61% cabernet sauvignon, 37% merlot, 1% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot. Drink after 2030.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.klwines.com\/images\/InnerQuote.gif\" alt=\"Inner quote mark\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"H2ReviewNotes\"\u003e98\/100 Points - Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.klwines.com\/images\/OuterQuote.gif\" alt=\"Outer quote mark\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eOne of the finest wines to ever pass my lips, the 2022 Château Cos D'Estournel is a monument in the making. This saturated ruby\/purple-hued Saint-Estèphe offers a full-bodied, massive, opulent style as well as perfumed red, blue, and black fruits, ample spice, chocolate, graphite, and lead pencil-like aromatics, a stacked mid-palate, flawless balance, and a monster of a finish. An improved version of the 2009 (if that's possible), this is a legendary wine in the making. Hats off to Michel Reybier and technical director Dominique Arangoïts.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.klwines.com\/images\/InnerQuote.gif\" alt=\"Inner quote mark\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97-99\/100 Points - Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, The Wine Independent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.klwines.com\/images\/OuterQuote.gif\" alt=\"Outer quote mark\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe 2022 Cos d'Estournel, composed of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot, is deep garnet-purple in color. It needs quite a lot of shaking and swirling to unlock fragrant notes of warm cassis, redcurrant jelly, and black raspberries, leading to hints of rose oil, Indian spices, cedar chest, and sandalwood, plus a touch of crushed rocks. The medium to full-bodied palate is very classic, with a solid backbone of firm, ripe tannins and impressive tension to support the taut, muscular black and red fruit layers, finishing very long and with remarkable purity.\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.klwines.com\/images\/InnerQuote.gif\" alt=\"Inner quote mark\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"H2ReviewNotes\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Château Cos D'Estournel","offers":[{"title":"6 Bottle Case","offer_id":58346143842635,"sku":"WOLRE13280S","price":2070.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Single Bottle","offer_id":58346143875403,"sku":"WOLRE13281S","price":350.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/9218\/files\/Cos_dEstournel_Wood.jpg?v=1788431881","url":"https:\/\/wineonline.ie\/products\/chateau-cos-destournel-2022","provider":"WineOnline","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
